The Ham & High asked readers in Camden, Haringey and Barnet to send us their favourite photographs they had taken last year - and you did not disappoint.

The snow from December furnished a few, but earlier pictures of bluebells in the spring, snaps taken on summer holidays, special occasions or of much-loved family members and pets featured among the rest.

Here is a selection:
